Guanacaste is known for its beaches, but some of the most beautiful places are hidden beyond the busy resort areas. This private experience is designed to help you discover quieter coves, scenic coastlines and peaceful places where you can enjoy the day at your own pace.

Mario will help select the best beaches according to your pickup location, the weather, road conditions, tides and what your group would most like to experience.

YOUR LOCAL GUIDE

Experience Costa Rica
through local eyes.

Mario grew up surrounded by jungle, rivers and the ocean in Drake Bay. His knowledge of Costa Rica comes from a lifetime spent close to nature—not only from maps and guidebooks.

After years working as a scuba instructor, divemaster, deckhand and boat guide, he now creates private ocean and land experiences across Guanacaste.

His approach is relaxed, personal and especially welcoming for families and children.
